Well, I disagree on that one. It may be a small pool but there can be any
number of reasons for not voting this time.
We have folks who work in various jobs and may not have had access to the
ability to vote. That was a struggle for me when I was 'beebopping to the beat
of the bream' (at sea) during 2001-2007. In fact, I missed an FTSC election
while doing Timor assistance. I seem to recall I came back 2 months later to
find I was relected.... I was out of connectivity for some 2 months.
What we do know is 8 of 14 voted, and there *may* be another who may have had
some admin problem or delayed delivery. Of the 5left it is very reasonable
that:, one could have lost a wife or other family member and put the BBS aside,
another might have been in the hospital, 1 on travel (work related or not)
leaving 2 people.
I would not be comfortable asking for reasons for not voting. Afterall, I
didnt do more than basic tending of my game league when my mom showed advanced
alzheimers as I freaked and took care of what I could. Later when she passed,
I was doing little BBS wise for a few weeks which is understandable.
I am not going to place those 5 in a position where they have to tell their
personal issues or potentially get voted down.
Come reelection time, we can see who is active or not well enough.
of the 5. You'll see the active ones from them replying.
